What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

5.8 for me which is much higher than Normal. Even washed hands etc but it is what it is. Culprit is I'm thinking 2 x pieces of 85% chocolate with coffee with cream at about 9pm. Wouldn't mind but i wasnt even hungry, im just trying to maintain weight and not lose. Won't be doing that again!!!
 
Morning all,
6.5 (48) before bed & 6.7(50) this morning better readings for me. I saw the nurse Yesterday and she was pleased with my results although I had a few low ones (3.8, 4.1) but general pleased. she said I must carry "sugar" with me (i.e. jelly babies) just in case I go to low especially before driving. And I have dropped another gliclazide tablet so that's good :)

I think I am now permanently wedded to my meter but I won’t let it stop me enjoying myself.
